Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast

Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour in Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point in Grand Turk, and Grace Bay in Providenciales. Today at Mudjin Harbour the sun rises at 06:13 AM and sets at 07:34 PM, with the moon dark at 0% lit. Clearer skies arrive this evening, so stargazers may spy bright Venus low in the western sky soon after sunset.

Monday brings warm, steady trade wind weather across the islands. Morning starts mostly cloudy at all three spots, near 82 to 83 F, with humidity in the low to mid 80s, so it will feel like 88 to 92 F. Winds stay easterly at 12 to 17 MPH, strongest in Grand Turk and lightest in Middle Caicos, with waves running 3 feet in Grace Bay, 4 feet in Grand Turk, and 3 to 4 feet at Mudjin Harbour. Through late morning and early afternoon the cloud deck stays thick, especially in Mudjin Harbour and Grace Bay, but any rain stays light and brief. By afternoon, skies open up from west to east, and by dinner time Grace Bay and Mudjin Harbour turn mostly sunny to clear while Grand Turk keeps a bit more cloud at times. Temperatures peak around 83 to 84 F, and with the humidity of 79 to 82% it will feel like 89 to 95 F, hottest in Mudjin Harbour. For boaters and beach crews, seas are nicest in Grace Bay, while Grand Turk is the breeziest and choppiest spot today.

Tuesday stays friendly for the water with steady easterly trades and small changes through the day. Dawn starts near 82 F at all three locations with humidity around 80 to 84%, so it will feel like 89 to 91 F. Winds hold from the east at 13 to 17 MPH, again strongest at Boaby Rock Point, while waves stay 3 feet in Mudjin Harbour and Grace Bay and 4 feet in Grand Turk. Clouds increase early and linger much of the day in all areas, especially late morning into afternoon, but rainfall stays so light that most crews will just notice passing clouds rather than proper rain. Afternoon highs reach 83 to 85 F, and with the humidity of 81 to 82% it will feel like 91 to 97 F, with Mudjin Harbour turning the steamiest of the three. Around dinner time, Grace Bay and Mudjin Harbour stay warm with partly to mostly cloudy skies, while Grand Turk grows cloudier again into the evening. Grand Turk once more stands out as windier and rougher than the country average.
